Bogislaw VII, Duke Of Pomerania
Bogislaw VII (before 1355 – 1404) was a Duke of Pomerania-Stettin from the House of Griffins. Life Bogislaw VII was the son of Duke Barnim III "the church founder" ( – 1368) and his wife, Agnes of Brunswick-Grubenhagen. After his father's death in 1368, he ruled Pomerania-Stettin jointly with his older brothers Casimir III and Swantibor III. Casimir III died in battle in 1372 during a war against Brandenburg. Swantibor III and Bogislaw VII continued to rule Pomerania-Stettin jointly. Bogislaw VII is described as a Duke, equal in status to his older brothers. He was, however, overshadowed by them. Bogislaw VII died in 1404. After his death, his brother Swantibor III ruled Pomerania-Stettin alone. The ''Codex Gelre'', a collection of coats of arms from the late 14th Century, mentions a "Duke of Groswin". This may have been Bogislaw VII.Hans Heinrich Reclam: ''Herzogtum Groswin in Vorpommern'', in: ''Baltische Studien'', vol. 62 N.F., 1976, , p. 23-27 See als ...

House Of Griffins
The House of Griffin or Griffin dynasty (german: Greifen; pl, Gryfici, da, Grif) was a dynasty ruling the Duchy of Pomerania from the 12th century until 1637. The name "Griffins" was used by the dynasty after the 15th century and had been taken from the ducal coat of arms. Duke Wartislaw I (died 1135) was the first historical ruler of the Duchy of Pomerania and the founder of the Griffin dynasty. The most prominent Griffin was Eric of Pomerania, who became king of the Kalmar Union in 1397, thus ruling Denmark, Sweden and Norway. The last Griffin duke of Pomerania was Bogislaw XIV, who died during the Thirty Years' War, which led to the division of Pomerania between Brandenburg-Prussia and Sweden. Duchess Anna von Croy, daughter of Duke Bogislaw XIII and the last Griffin, died in 1660. Name of the Dynasty The dynasty is known by two names, ''Pomerania'', after their primary fief, and ''Griffin'', after their coat of arms, which had featured a griffin since the late 12th centur ...

Barnim III, Duke Of Pomerania
Barnim III the Great (14 August 1368) was a Pomeranian duke from the Griffin dynasty. Life He ruled Pomerania-Stettin in the years 1344–1368, although he had been a co-regent of his father Otto I since 1320, taking a prominent part in the defence and government of the duchy. Aiming for independence from the Margraviate of Brandenburg, he allied himself with Poland and Bohemia. In 1338 Brandenburg relinquished supremacy over Pomerania, and in 1348 Charles IV recognized the duchy as a fiefdom of the Holy Roman Empire, which helped to protect it from the Brandenburg margraves. The civil war in Brandenburg in the years 1349–1354 allowed Barnim III to extend his duchy by conquest. He was first ''dux Cassuborum'' Duke of Kashubians. Marriage and issue Barnim III married Agnes ( – before or in 1371), a daughter of Duke Henry II of Brunswick-Grubenhagen. They had four children: * Otto (d. 1337) * Casimir III (1348 – 24 August 1372) * Swantibor III ( – 21 June ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

14th-century Births
As a means of recording the passage of time, the 14th century was a century lasting from 1 January 1301 ( MCCCI), to 31 December 1400 ( MCD).
